Provides opportunity for bottom feeders to wear mouthparts naturally. Review: SIZE COMPARISON PICS!! - I use this when I need to feed my 12in pleco while I’m out of the house for a couple of days. Lasts about 3 days with a larger one like mine or a week for the little ones. Doesn’t resolve in the water quickly either. No complaints works every time. Review: Great way to feed - Easy to use and the fish like them. I have two aquariums, one with a pleco and another with algae eaters and panda cory's. Add one a week to the bigger aquarium. ## Features - Time-release feeder - For suckermouth-type catfish - For fresh and saltwater - Zoo Med Laboratories leco Banquet Block - Time release food block is great as a vacation feeder - Provides opportunity for bottom feeders to wear mouthparts naturally ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007CRDUYC | | Age Range (Description) | All Life Stages | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Allergen Information | Nut Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #5,856 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #38 in Reptile & Amphibian Food | | Brand | Zoo Med | | Brand Name | Zoo Med | | Breed Recommendation | All Breed Sizes | | Container Type | Block | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,247 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Large | | Flavor | Fish | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00097612119084 | | Included Components | Zoo Med - FDR BANQUET PLECO BLOCK | | Item Form | Feeders | | Item Type Name | Zoo Med - FDR BANQUET PLECO BLOCK | | Item Weight | 9.07 g | | Manufacturer | TopDawg Pet Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | BB-8 | | Model Number | BB-8 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Pet Type | Fish | | Special Ingredients | Spirulina Algae, Plankton | | Specific Uses For Product | Active | | Target Species | Fish | | UPC | 097612119084 | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** All Life Stages - **Brand:** Zoo Med - **Flavor:** Fish - **Item Form:** Feeders - **Specific Uses For Product:** Active ## Images ![Laboratories AZMBB8 Pleco Banquet Block Black 0.45 Ounce (Pack of 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91gpyCwbomL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SIZE COMPARISON PICS!! *by A***A on May 30, 2026* I use this when I need to feed my 12in pleco while I’m out of the house for a couple of days.
